Hello,
I am a newbie. I recently purchased a Asus Transformer Pad Tf700T from ebay that already hs been rooted with CROMI-Xenogenesis 5.4 - 10.6.1.27.5 US ODEX. The tab is ruinning android 4.2.1

I bought a class 10 64gb mini sd card. I loaded it up with movies, pics, and music. I put the card in the tablet and it reads fine from it. But it won't let me delete anything or add anything to it? When I try I get a Permission Denied message?

Can someone please tell me how I go about fixing this.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Steve

If the MSD is in an adapter that allows it to be used in a full size SD slot, there's a tiny switch on the side of the adapter that can be set to write protect the card. That would prevent both additions and deletions. If that's not the case, try cleaning off the contacts and re-inserting the card. Be sure it clicks into place.

Thanks for all the info guys. I found the problem.
I had the card formatted to NTFS and it could read only from that.
Since it is a 64gb card I had to use a program to format it FAT32 because the windows tool won't let you on a card that size.
Once I got the 64gb card formatted to Fat 32 everything works good.

Hope this helps anyone who has the same issue.
Steve
